This week we had a chance to sit down wth Fit Radio DJ, DJ Spryte. This is what he had to say:

Q: Who do you think should run for president in two years?

A: Daenerys Targaryen. (Yep I went there!)

Q: How many push up’s you can do?

A: In a row, I would say about 45. Then, I would fall over.

Q: Would you eat a bowl of crickets for $100,000?

A: Are we talking live crickets? Would some kind of seasoning salt be permitted? (Either way, I’d still most likely do it!)

Q: What are your top 3 gigs you have ever DJed?

A: This is a though one. Actually, I think Fit Radio has worked with them. I did a Night Nation Run Festival in Los Angles last year with 15,000 people. That would definitely be one of my favorite shows. The other 2 would have to be when I played in South Korea at Club Answer and I love Canada so I would say the shows I’ve done up in Grande Prairie, Alberta.

Q: What did you think the 1st time you played the Fit Radio App?

A: Great App! People needed something like this. Especially for running, gym sessions, or even road trips.

Q: How does Fit Radio help people’s workouts?

A: Music has a tremendous effect on the way you feel. The right mix can motivate you to go the extra mile or keep pushing through your workout when you feel like quitting.

Q: What is the best feature on Fit Radio?

A: The Selection of mixes available. Plus having them all categorized really helps you navigate to exactly the style of music you’re looking for.

Q: How do you prepare a mix for Fit Radio?

A: I really like finding different and new styles of music and mixing them together with familiar elements of songs that are more recognizable to people. It’s a great way to introduce new music to the listener. When I start making the mix, I try to pair up vocals from hit records with newer, more abstract tracks. I think of a mix as a whole piece of music, as opposed to a collection of songs. So, it’s very common to always hear something going on, even in the spaces between tracks.

This week we had a chance to sit down wth Fit Radio DJ, DJ Rolemodel. This is what he had to say:

Q: Of all your pet-peeves, which is the strangest?

A: When people are ordering food and they reach over the sneeze-guard to point at what they want (think Chipotle or Subway).

Q: What is your favorite animal? Why?

A: Koala bear. (Probably because it’s the best emoji there is.)

Q: If you could live anywhere in the world, where would it be?

A: Venice, Italy or b some small village in Norway overlooking a fjord.

Q: Would you rather have money or love? Why?

A: Money, only because I don’t look for love, I create it.

Q: Would you consider yourself to be a good dancer?

A: In college I took 5 different dance classes, however, you will never see me dance. (Unless it’s a few head bobs in the DJ booth.)

Q: What do you consider to be the best feature about Fit Radio for users?

A: The best feature about Fit Radio is when it updates users to let them know there is a new mix from DJ Rolemodel.

Q: How can Fit Radio change your workout?

A: Fit Radio has helped me because I don’t have to worry about the music that’s coming up, I can relax and focus on cardio instead of skipping from song to song.

Q: What are the perks being a Fit Radio DJ?

A:  The main perk of being a Fit Radio DJ is the exposure. That and of course having tons of new friends from the ATL.

Q: What was the Night Nation Run event like?

This week, we had a chance to sit down with DJ Euphoria and ask him a couple questions. Here is what he had to say:

1. How would you best describe yourself in three words?

Honest , Friendly, and Ambitious.

2. What is the most embarrassing thing that has ever happened to you?

It was picture day in middle school and my mom decided she was going to start cutting my hair herself. Let’s just say, I came out looking like I went to a blind barber. She still made me go to school wearing a hat, but little did she know hats weren’t allowed at school. (Like I told her!) I got called so many names that day and ended up getting my head shaved completely bald. We didn’t purchase the pictures that year. 😉

3. Who is or was your celebrity crush?

Shailene Woodley

4. If you could read minds, whose would you want to read?

DJ AM – his music selection and live mashups were unreal. A true legend.

5. What is the most important thing to you when you make a mix for Fit Radio?

I always put myself in the user’s shoes. I make sure that a listener would love to listen to the mix over and over and look forward to more.

Getting to know Fit Radio DJ, Fuseamania! We had a chance to sit down with one of our favorite Running DJs and here is what he had to say:

1.What do you think makes your running mixes so great?

They are made with love. 🙂

2. What is your favorite thing about the last running mix you sent us?

The diversity of the music in the mix!

3. How do you choose the songs you use in your running mix?

I usually try to chose the songs that target around the tempo of the mix I’m making.

4. What is the coolest mashup/remix you’ve used a running mix? What makes it stand out?

I really like the Discotech (1.0) version of “Everlong” by the Foo Fighters. (One of my favorite bands.)

5. What is the difference between your Fit Radio running mix and a playlist heard on other music apps?

The mixing is flawless and keeps you moving to a steady backbeat.

6. Talk about the formula behind your running mix and what goes into creating it.

I really keep the runner / workout in mind when making a mix. I want to make sure they get everything they can out of it.

Well if I had to sum up this week’s MixLab in one phrase it would have to be, “anybody want some weiners and balls?” You can thank DJ Mami Chula for that one! She had purchased a barbecue platter of sorts for the DJs which consisted of mini sausages and meatballs 🙂 ANYway, back to the MixLab recap! We had a new group of DJs and they were super excited to work together and make a brand spankin’ new collabo’ mix for the users as well as partake in jäger bombs and provisions alike.
